I have just finished uploading the new version. The links up now are for the new one. I didn't bother changing the version number because its only got a slight change done to it. The ROM now auto-zipalign the data apks on boot. Thats about it. So its not a huge update thats why I kept the same version number. If you want it you can re-download it. But to be honest if you have already got 4.2c installed there isn't really a huge need to install this version.

But I have one question, how do I start the supercharger script? How can I change the settings for the script?

Regards

Hans

Its added as a init.d script so it gets started at boot, you don't have to do anything. its called 99SuperCharger and its in /system/etc/init.d.

If you want to change the settings you will need to download the script and run it to change the settings in init.d. But there isn't a huge amount of setting you could change. Just the few values for the memory and I have already choose the best value.

The script that you download is mainly for generating the init.d script. Once you have that the one you downloaded is pretty useless.

Sorry about this girls and boys but I found that the memory profile I was using was a bit to aggressive. I have now made it more balanced and should work much better. Its still version 4.2c but the new links are up now. Just waiting for the Mirrors to be done.

You don't have to re-download the ROM you can change the settings yourself.

Install Script Manager and run it. Find the script you just placed onto your SD-Card and run it as Root (the SU button). Then pick option 6 (options 5,6,7 will all be fine. Just use one that works well for you.)

I installed the latest version and have again gone about trying to remove the apps I don't want but they seem very stuck about getting out. Tried uninstalling with link2sd and deleting the apks in system and root uninstaller but they like to stick there. I'm talking about File Expert and More Locale. The file explorer would be good if I didn't have to buy the pro version. Also the Juice Defender sticks and doesn't want to uninstall either. I use ES File Explorer for my file manager and it works perfectly. Also the battery drain seems somewhat high to me. Gonna keep on giving it a go and see how it goes but if there were a way to make it easier to get rid of un-needed apps it would be good.

The upgrading while keeping my apps worked I might add.

Also does it make the phone perform better to have the apps in system rather than on the sd-ext? I have always tried to put everything on sd-ext to save the phone memory.

Reboot the phone and the apps will be gone. The apps are saved in System to save space. The phone is partitioned as system/data/sdcard. Data is where all of your apps that you download and installed are stored. Putting apps in the system partition frees up space in data. Even with what I have placed in the system partition there is 12MB of free space that is wasted in system. Most custom ROMs don't use system to store apps as most won't work being placed there. I had to do trial and error to find what apps worked in system and which ones didn't.

after i flash the rom 4.2c, i found the home button is not working at all

i try to flash back t&l rom, the home button is working,

is it only i facing this problem?

It sucks because I wised for you that you could keep your data but it seems like you may have to do a clean install. The home button isn't an issue with the ROM it does work so the only reason it wouldn't work is because of your saved data from the t&l rom.

However a slight issue for me is the sip dialing function has disappeared from the dialer. Should be in call settings advanced settings. Will try and dig out a fix from the various threads on this forum.

However it doesn't work. I think this turns the option on IF the code exists for it. I recon the code does not exit for sip dialing. That is, it needs more work than just turning the option on. I rebuilt the .apk with the setting set to false and dropped it back into PerformanceRomV4.2b_signed-Vanilla-Links2SD.zip. On reinstall, I checked /system/framework-res.apk and the tweaked file is there so its getting installed. Followed the clear cache/dalvik cache instructions.

Anyone with experience of getting sip/internet calling back on the stock Acer rom?

Also I just put the phone in SD download mode and installed Acer_LiquidMT_4.000.13_EMEA_GEN1 to see if it had sip/internet calling and it hasn't. So the default dialer hasn't got this feature so I am unsure what you was using before.

I would do a wipe. There are a few things in data that needs copying over.

I wouldn't worry about there being another update soon so its safe to start over :) I had some set goals I wanted for the ROM and I have achieved 95% of them now (I thought it would take me longer to add all the features I wanted, thats why there has been so many updates in the last week). The other changes I want to make are to do with the kernel and I have no clue how to tweak the kernel. Hopefully TechnoLover can add the features I am after in his next release.

With 4.2 B (Vanilla ad2sdX version) i see 200/230 mb free ram (very great) but if i install games or software big, i recive a low interal memory allert (but i see 2.1 Gb internal memory) (I followed the tutorial for the 16 gb micro sd class 10)... And the phone is slow with games and applications...

Have you ideas for my problem?

Read this from the main post.

I Would also install SD Maid if you decide to use the AD2SDX version as there is no way of telling how much internal memory is being used (but don't use it to clean the system as this can break apps). When the internal memory is full the phone will start having issues. So keep an eye on it. Remember using this you can still move apps to the SD as you would normally. App2SD is installed on the AD2SDX version and is a good way of doing batch moves, it also tells you which apps are safe to move and which ones aren't.

In 4.2c I changed the way memory worked so you could do multitasking. Having that much memory free in 4.2B makes the phone run fast but if you have to many programs open the phone will crash.
